On this day we continued working on the project. Here are the notes I found:
The officials of the Athenian government were not elected in the same manor that our democracy is set up today. Rather the members were chosen by the council. The members were all male and would select citizens. The people had limited speech as to the council's decisions. However, most of the council's decisions were sound and reasonable.
There weren't too many complaints from the people as far as elections went.
